From a lovable feline to an all-campus fiesta, the University of Houston builds community and generates fun with a variety of time-honored traditions. Most individual colleges have their own traditions, too, ranging from Wolffest, a college of business tradition where students run pop-up food stands in a three-day competition, to the Hobby School of Public Affairs’ annual Elizabeth D. Rockwell Lecture on Ethics and Leadership. Every Friday is declared Cougar Red Friday, and we wear red to show our pride and passion for the University. Wearing red on Friday is more than just a tradition; it is who we are.
